3 Steps to Booking More

Hi Friends!

Here are three ways to get more bookings! Are you feeling in a rut or are you just starting out but needing consistent income? Let’s chat about a few things that I think will help. 

One

Show up to events for free and sell prints! In the beginning of my career, I showed up to high school rodeos for free and sold prints. After a few years of donating my time, I started to see a return. Many of those families that I made connections with at the high school rodeos later hired me for family and senior portraits. I still work with many of them to this day! When you consistently put your smiling face in front of people within your niche you will grow a loyal client base. Think about it this way, if you show up for them, they will show up for you!

Two

Stay consistent on social media. I know I preach this a lot… but honestly, Instagram is where I get 80% of my bookings. By showing up consistently and creating a bond with your followers they will be loyal to you in return. My biggest tip is to post daily and show up in your stories three times a day. Remember to show your face as much as possible!

Three

Grow an email list! When I need to drum up some business, I always resort to sending out an email to all of my email subscribers. This never fails to drum up some work! By growing your email list, you will have the ability to tell people about upcoming deals and promotions. To create emails and organize email subscribers I use Flodesk, an email marketing system. Feel free to use my Flodesk discount code below to get started making stunning emails!

Until next week, I hope you find these three tips helpful! Be sure and tune in to The LMP Podcast if you’d like to hear more about any one of these tips.
